For our first episode of 2023, we sit down and have a chat with Sharon from Her Simple Sole (@hersimplesole). Sharon focuses on clothing sustainability, which includes clothing made from natural fibres like cotton, linen, wool and cashmere vs. processed fibres. Sustainability is looking at what a company is doing, how they are producing, are fair wages being paid etc. vs. fast fashion, which is mainly to chase trends and make money which in the end leads to more waste.
Sharon gives us a rundown of how she first started...then re-started with a clearer vision to become the success it is today. Making a conscious effort to buy sustainable clothing allows you to have less with more, and this mentality can cross over to your general lifestyle as well. We touch briefly on minimalism with references to the documentaries "Minimalism" and "The True Cost". If you haven't seen these, they are definitely an eye opener! For those of you who want to make a more conscious decision when purchasing clothes, this episode's for you!
